I'll read more

I will read more. Was doing a bunch of personal work over spring break, but as someone is actually reading this, I'll write a bit more.  Thank you.

Into London

Pip has met the younger Mr. Pocket, (Herbet) who turns out to be the pale-boy he fought with in Miss Havisham's yard years back. The young Mr. Pocket sees Estella for the cruel girl, groomed to be so by Miss Havisham's bitterness for her cancelled marriage, that she is. He is free from her spell, unlike Pip, who never will be.

Back to the book!

Almost a year since I started this whole deal.  Finished "Part 1" of Pip's great expectations. He's in London, still believing that Miss Havisham is his fairy godmother. The part where he meets with Mr. Jaggers is a bit of a slog. I want to finish the book! Someone ask me how "David Copperfield" was going yesterday...no, no, it's Great Expectations. Still. Began reading it in July or August or something.  At one point I started over to see how old Pip was, but it never really says, so I read it twice and still don't know.  At any rate, I'm on a break for a couple of weeks, so I have some time.  Kinda' decided that I will attempt the Pickwick Papers next.  See how many years it takes me to finish now.
